That's a hard choice. Obviously I'd much rather Glorfindle rescused Frodo (makes a lot more sense) but you've got to think of the audience who haven't read the books. A new character would be confusing for them, especially one who doesn't really have much of a role in the books. <BR>But it would be interesting having him at Helms deep. But it wouldn't make much sense, seeing as all the Elves were from Lorien. But how about this? PJ develops his character during the rescue scenes and the council of elrond, then haves him come alone with Ellanden and Elrohir from Rivendell in RotK? That would make more sense and be truer to the book than him going to Helms Deep.
